I'm thinking Ferm is on the right track with his post.  
I replaced our NFB on our old V. 
All it took was three season to freeze up the steering at the tilt tube. 
 
BTW the NFB that I install in 2009 is still in good working order. It does get sticky and needs to be lubed and freed up from time to time. 
 
Hopefully that it's just the tilt tube rust that causing the binding in the steering.
